Those net curtains that are curtains IYKWIM, in fact I think they are like a special shaped scarf that you wrap around the pole. I want white ones with a touch of lilac in, be it flowers or spirals, or just plain lilac ones, I want them for out toilet, it is a very small room so I dont want to loose any light by having proper curtains.

Yes, I would probably make a fool of myself if I went into a curtain shop and asked if they had any foils

In French it would sound like "vwarl", if that helps at all?

JoolsToo · 10/02/2006 23:14
